“…Traditional droop control consists of obtaining a frequency reference for each generator according to the assigned slope and real power variations as shown in (2). In this equation, the term represents the generator reference frequency i, is the rated frequency, is the droop slope assigned to generator i, , is the nominal real power of the generator i, and is the measured real power of the generator i: * = − ( , − )…”

“…However, conventional sources are finite and produce an unfavorable impact on the environment. Microgrids are good options as they are small-scale power systems close to the load centers and include distributed generation sources (DGs) for implementing renewable energies [1,2]. Moreover, they are designed to meet energy demand in optimal conditions and work as isolated or gridconnected systems [3].…”

The inertia issues in a microgrid can be improved by modifying the inverter control strategies to represent a virtual inertia simulation. This method employs the droop control strategy commonly used to share the power of a load among different power sources in the microgrid. This paper utilizes a modified droop control that represents this virtual inertia and applies an optimization algorithm to determine the optimal parameters and improve transient response. The results show better control when different variations are presented in the loads, leading the microgrid to have a better control of the operation. The optimization method applied in this research allows improvement to the transient response, thus avoiding unnecessary blackouts in the microgrid. : received his Bs. degree in Electrical Engineering and his Master in Electrical Engineering from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Sede Medellín.

“…So that at every polygeneration plant, the control system used is in accordance with its operational process. In general, the Predictive Control Model has largely been used for polygeneration [229][230][231]. The control application system for monitoring inputs originating from the surveillance and data acquisition (SCADA) control systems has been reported in several kinds of literature [232].…”

Better systems can be produced from various utility outputs that are integrated to make choices. The emergence of polygeneration after triggers and cogeneration can be used as sustainable solutions, making it possible to utilize resources optimally, efficiently and environmentally friendly. Polygeneration can be conceptualized with several possibilities because, theoretically, the working system has been well received as contained in some literature. Various scientific works have reported that the input and output vary greatly. The results of experimental analyses and prototypes developed have also been widely investigated and reported. Optimization tools that are based on the function of each objective are also used as a step to develop polygeneration effectively and efficiently. Polygeneration assessment has multidimensional criteria and their definitions can be applied based on cases with specific objectives. The main objective of this article is to comprehensively review the various literature available to investigate the status of polygeneration for renewable and sustainable energy solutions in the future. Various possible logical and predictable future works on polygeneration are also discussed at the end of this article.

“…Nowadays, power systems face an energy transition process that involves the concepts of smart grids, distributed generation and storage, demand side management and demand response [1]. These trends in electrical grids are changing the way traditional electrical systems are planned and operated, giving way to the deployment of joint solutions for the generation, distribution and consumption of energy, such as microgrids [2].…”

On the Value of Community Association for Microgrid Development: Learnings from Multiple Deterministic and Stochastic Planning Designs

The reliability of the power grid is a constant problem faced by those who operate, plan and study power systems. An alternative approach to this problem, and others related to the integration of renewable energy sources, is the microgrid. This research seeks to quantify the potential benefits of urban community microgrids, based on the development of planning models with deterministic and stochastic optimization approaches. The models ensure that supply meets demand whilst assuring the minimum cost of investment and operation. To verify their effectiveness, the planning of hundreds of microgrids was set in the city of Santiago de Chile. The most important results highlight the value of community association, such as: a reduction in investment cost of up to 35%, when community microgrids are planned with a desired level of reliability, compared to single residential household microgrids. This reduction is due to the diversity of energy consumption, which can represent around 20%, on average, of cost reduction, and to the Economies of Scale (EoS) present in the aggregation microgrid asset capacity, which can represent close to 15% of the additional reduction in investment costs. The stochastic planning approach also ensures that a community can prepare for different fault scenarios in the power grid. Furthermore, it was found that for approximately 90% of the planned microgrids with reliability requirements, the deterministic solution for the worst three fault scenarios is equivalent to the solution of the stochastic planning problem.
